[HTC One S] Deleted member 3544975:
It depends on which rom you stay with. If you stay on CM10, then you do not have to flash the boot.img everytime you flash a new nightly. But if you go to 10.1, then you will have to flash that boot.img first. If you have S-Off the boot.img will be flashed from TWRP when the rom is flashed, and you wont have to do it from Fastboot. I don't suggest you try to downgrade you Hboot, especially because we have S-Off now. Although some people are finding that they can no longer connect to any signal above Edge/2g after S-Off.
[HTC One S] Pip513:
That's why I didn't want to go s-off just yet. I saw some people having trouble with it, and since I've got a different model (Cincinnati Bell version) than the s-off guide has, I decided not to until it was 100% stable. Thanks for the help though guys! As long as I've got to a way to flash roms without too much headache, I'm happy.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] madlive:
Hey everybody,

Today I decided that my Maxx (eu, germany) was to slugish so I gave it a in - OS wipe and reset. But unfortunately my razr (xt912) refused to boot up again, just kept hanging in the 'upgrading android' for several hours. So than decided to download myself some fastboot files and start from scratch. Unfortunately themmost logical candidates of the fastboot files keep on returning the following error on RSD: Failed flashing process. Failed flashing process. 6/21 flash CDT.bin "cdt.bin_signed" --> Phone returned fail ; phone connected.

Getting a bit desperate here. Hope you guys can help me with this.

Cheers.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] white43:
Isn't the European version xt910? IS yours really a 912? That would imply a North American variant. You could always throw an email to Motorola support with the IMEI asking for the phones origins...I did this and they confirmed mine was a Hong Kong variant.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] madlive:
I think you might be right. Its a German Razr Maxx. ( I know for certain its' German because it has germany specific apps on it). But would anyone know what the error means?

Fortunately I do can get in fastboot. Yesterday managed to get into android and the setup wizard but after the setup wizard I never get my launcher screen. The phone doesn't lock up just shows a black screen.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Krensii:
Hello everyone! ^^

My phone now can not boot up when i press and hold power button. Here is my work before that:

- First, i use Odin to flash stock ICS I9100DXLPF

- Then, reboot to stock recovery, flash cwm (on sdcard) and use cwm flash superuser for root the phone and remove yeallow icon

- When completed, i reset the phone -> all worked

- Next, i reboot to stock recovery and flash cwm (on sdcard) again and wipe data/factory reset (i want flash custom ROM)

-> I wait for 10' but this cwm can't wipe

- Then, i press and hold power button for reboot -> And the phone poweroff, and never boot up again :(

Some questions:

- Does my phone got bricked? And how do it can brick, when i don't wipe system, only wipe factory/reset?

I need your help, friends :)

- I have efsbackup, if i change the motherboard, can i use my backed up efs for apply old imei? ^^

- If i buy a new s2 phone (but lost IMEI, so that dont hear the SIM), can i use efsbackup to apply my old imei for new phone?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rsr1:
Sounds like you may have had the unfortunate eMMC superbrick bug which hard-bricks your phone beyond saving (even by JTAG) this happens if you were one of the unfortunate ones (like me). If you running stock 4.0.4 kernal then this is certainly what has happened as you tried to wipe... give me a few mins i will get you thread

edit: couldnt find thread but i am 99% sure. What kernal were you running?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Krensii:
Im using stock kernel of Stock ICS ROM (4.0.4). I just rooted, removed yellow icon...by cwm only, on sdcard

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rsr1:
thanks for the quick reply..

Update some questions in #1 :)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MistahBungle:
No, you can't. Your device should have the same IMEI if it's done by an authorised repairer. If it's done by someone who isn't an authorised repairer, who knows what will happen. One thing is for certain tho, if you try and restore your EFS backup when you get your phone fixed, there's a fair chance you'll bork it.

Don't try it.

Edit - No you cannot restore an EFS backup from one phone to another phone. The IMEI is a unique identifier that identifies a specific (one) device. Changing IMEI's is illegal in most countries, I suggest you stop talking about same or mods will close your thread (Per XDA rule "Don't do/say anything that gets us 'in trouble'")

Extra edit - @OP:- I've done a bit more rummaging through my SGS2 bookmarks, so far as whether you keep your existing IMEI or whether you get a new one when the board is replaced, it seems to vary a bit. Most old examples I could dig up where the person posted after they got the phone back kept their existing IMEI's, and a couple say they got new ones. Hard to say whether it's a country to country thing (seems that way) or whether it varies even amongst individual authorised repairers in the same country (less likely).

Regardless of what happens in your case, why would it matter whether you had the existing IMEI or a new one ? It makes absolutely no difference to you as a phone user, and would only make a difference to someone if there was some dodginess or 'shenanigans' going on. Rest assured, if your phone is fixed by an authorised repair, it will work exactly as it did before you borked it (minus the data you had in the internal storage, obviously).

Extra extra edit (;)) - Tho if you get a board from a 'donor' phone & replace it yourself/get a local mobile shop to do it, you'll end up with the IMEI on that board. Again, I don't really recommend attempting to restore an EFS backup from another phone (And talking about same on here is nada).

[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zmattmanz:
I love Android and was so excited to get my N10. Mine had creaks, a little light bleed and one reboot and about 5 freezes since I've had it in the past week and it was laggy in some apps. All forgivable, but tonight it started flashing white with black on the entire screen between transitions (I was able to reproduce this by tabbing the home and apps drawer back and forth). Screen flashing and artifacts are a deal breaker.

So, is anyone successful with their RMAs? Do these issues get resolved or more like a few of the horror stories I've seen with 5-6 returns to Google.
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] espionage724:
If you RMA with Google, it's somewhat random luck (it seems) as to what kind of device you'll get next. If you RMA with Samsung, it might take a bit longer to get you device back, but it "should" be fixed (unless the problem is software-related anyway)

Anyways, the RMA I received was better than the original one I had bought off of Google Play. The hardware buttons were no longer loose and are now rock solid. And my screen uniformity is 100x better than my original. I may have gotten lucky, but I'm extremely satisfied. :cool:

[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SayWhat10:
Actually if you ordered from google play, you can call google up to a YEAR after you purchased,and they'll send you a new device(thats their way of "repairing")

technically it is free

free means you dont have to pay, and you dont

they authorize the full amount,which drops off after a few days

of course its not free and you have to pay if and only if you fail to return the broken one

a "hold" is simply not the same as actually paying for the tablet
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rodeojones:
I had extremely painless (pleasant, even) experiences with RMAs through Google. However, it did take a couple tries for my issues to be resolved. My first replacement was worse than the one I was sending back, but they got it right with my second replacement. And in both cases the $499 hold on my account was released before the tablet I sent them had even been received. I'm thinking that as soon as the tracking info was updated showing the tablet was sent it was released (just speculation, but both times the holds were released within 24 hours of UPS updating the tracking info). And my phone calls were easy - less than 20 minutes each time. There have been some horror stories on here about RMAs, but not all have been bad.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Endriu90:
Hi everyone,

I wasn't used to consider myself a too-much-noob anymore, but now I've plenty of doubts.

So, here's my problem: I've decided to give the latest ParanoidAndroid release a try and my maguro was "oem locked". Then, I've run the command "fastboot oem unlock" and copied all files I needed (PA rom, GlaDos v2.2 and latest GApps) into my /sdcard folder (usual job). I've rebooted into recovery (latest touch CWM), formatted /system, /data, /cache (usual full wipe), searched for the files and flashed them.

When it was time to reboot, the phone got stuck at the first screen (black, with the white "Google" and the white opened padlock). In other words, the bootanimation didn't even start.

Then, I've re-downloaded the stuff, double-checked all Md5 sums, re-copied everything in the sdcard but the result didn't change.

I've tried to re-flash the stock unrooted rom, then repeating the steps without formatting /system. I've also tried to not flash the kernel. No way the rom could even boot.

Now I'm seriously wondering what's wrong with what I've done :confused:. For completeness, my bootloader version is LC03 and the radio is XXLJ1 (same as the fully stock android bundle that can be found here)

I've also checked (maybe too much quickly, I may admit) the threads for PA and GlaDos, but I haven't seen anyone complaining about the same problem...

Could you guys please help me?

all you need to do to wipe is select

FACTORY RESET in custom recovery

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Endriu90:

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] neerajvd:
Flash Kernel too

Hi,

When the new PA version was uploaded (20 Feb), this was the warning posted by the developer:

So I recommend you download any latest 4.2.2 kernel (AK kernel or franco) and flash it alongwith the ROM.

Hope this helps.

Regards,

Neeraj
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Endriu90:
Thank you guys, I've solved (I've tried just with the factory reset as said by pirateghost, but I was used to format /system, /data and /cache when it was time to flash roms like AOKP and everything used to work properly) (I was used to do the same with the Nexus S).

Now I'm running the 15feb release with the stock android kernel (which comes with the stock 4.2.2 factory bundle) and everything just works as expected.

Anyway, I still can't get the reason why GlaDOS shouldn't work with the 20feb release. I mean, it's a custom kernel and it should work as well as AK or franco kernels, shouldn't it? If I'm wrong, could you briefly tell me why? (sorry, I won't move to other kernels, as I personally love GlaDOS and it provides my GNex with the optimal equilibrium performances/battery life)

EDIT:

alongside the 15feb release, I've tried to flash GlaDOS (just factory-resetting before flashing), but nothing boots. Restored the backup, now I'm still running PA with the stock kernel

[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] agraceful:
If you want the proximity sensor to work I'll give you two files to flash, but first, I'd suggest using lupus or turbo kernel. Fxp doesn't support the play anymore anyway. Grab the latest CM file from the cm site and use that instead. Then flash everything normally, kernel, rom, then gapps. Of the two files I'm attaching you'll want to flash the enable proximity one first, then the proxfix. Fxp was so kind to fix the sensor then disable, such nice guys. Either way, I don't remember where I found these files but they do work because I'm running them right now. Enjoy.
